Introduction: Finding my niche in the bridal market was the best thing I did for myself and my future business. You can look at many wedding planner’s packages and they are all pretty similar. There is a pretty standard set of duties that we cover in our profession. When I realized this, I set out to make my packages different and possibly better meet the needs of my ideal client. With that said, I have added things to my packages that other planners do not offer, such as assistance in stationary design. I have also included a list of Little Luxuries. These are special extras that my couples can choose to add into their package (up to a certain dollar amount). Another factor that sets me apart is my experience and connections in Private Estate events which takes skills and knowledge beyond what is required for an event planner who specializes in resort and hotel wedding and event planning.
Don't get me wrong, being a wedding and event planner is not all rainbows and sunshine but it is my passion! Everyday I continue to grow as a planner and I learn something new each day about myself and my business.
For me, wedding and event planning is a creative outlet. I have had the opportunity to inspire brides and grooms with the most stunning of details to help them make their special day the best day ever! But with that said, I also get to make the planning experience an enjoyable ride and work alongside them as I get to know about the couple and their journey together. I love knowing that my clients are at ease and get to make decisions without pressure or regret as I walk alongside them. One of my favorite things about my job is the many incredible couples I have the opportunity to get to know. Each with their own style and thoughts of a dream wedding is what keeps my job exciting and me on my toes. And my all time favorite part about being a wedding planner is seeing the bride and groom’s reactions of all the details coming together on the wedding day. There is nothing that compares to that feeling on their special day!
